Facebook Fetcher is updated to continue working with all the availability of Facebook, this addon allows you to get posts from the pages where you are administrator or from your user profile, in addition to this you can get posts from the Facebook public pages only when the application is approved, at this time you can see the last changes of the FB versions at: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/changelog/version19.0.
Meta has made changes to app permissions from version 19.0 of the Graph API. The publish_to_groups
and groups_access_member_info
permissions, and the ability for group admins to install apps on the group, have been deprecated. These will be removed on April 2024.
With the implementation of this version, when creating a new app you will have to choose the App Type “Business” or “Consumer” if your goal is to fetch posts from pages where you are an administrator or from your user profile, however, it’s important to note that currently our Facebook Fetcher addon can only authenticate one App at a time.
